That’s total bull crap. He doesn’t want anyone’s record. He just wants to win games. If the game is a runaway like in Buffalo then he may try in stretch it but He wants championship.

Drew is the Julio Franco of the NFL. He's going to play until he's 60.

Brees is missing a few receiving toys this year

The screen game is fabulous most of the time w Kamera and Ingram

Michael Thomas is clutch - good telepathy with Drew
He has real football smarts

Ginn has shown spurts but he's not as sure handed as Cooks was

Snead is mia after a great season last year

Brandon Coleman gets one in the seam occasionally but is a hell of a down field blocker. (He threw multiple hussle blocks on the big Ingram run against Carolina)

Tight ends? What tight ends?
Don't need Jimmy just somebody competant

Drew needs a new upgrade to a piece or two to give him more options.

But he has always went far with less
And made the receivers around him better

Cooks caught 68% of the passes Brees threw to him. That's good.
Ginn's caught 77% of the passes thrown to him this season. That's crazy good.

Thanks. I was about to pull those numbers up myself when I read that.

Brees arm doesn't look any different to me. Brees will make a bad throw and people will be like "oh my he's aging" . I've seen him make those same bad throws when he was younger though. Brees has always been an incredibly accurate guy, but I've seen him let a few get away from him.. especially when he tries to force it.

Really! Remember the end of the Jimmy era?
